We went to a planning meeting for our homeschool group yesterday, at the beach... It was beautiful. L had thrown up that morning from the smell of citronella I spilled... Thankfully P was able to give us time from 10:55-1:15. We had such a lovely time at the beach with friends and got a lot of good planning done with the moms. When it was time for our family to head home I gave the kids a 5 minute warning.
M's best friend's (PF) float got blown away and she went after it. My best friend (Q), M's best friend's mom, went after her daughter. A short while later, I looked and saw that M had gone too. PF has done competitive swimming and did lifeguard camp last year. Q is an avid swimmer. When they realized M was following them they chose to come back because of her safety.
I didn't realize the danger she had been in and was just annoyed we were really pushing against a hard time limit. I'm glad she is OK. I'm glad she had the good sense to do all her work when we got home and write a letter to Q apologizing for the situation.
M made some cards to invite girls from school to her birthday party. She looked up the address and hand wrote, on cute cards, all the details. I love it.
